Long-shot Senate candidate Buck hits bull's-eye in Colo.

[ccharles000]

Ken Buck, once thought to be a dead-in-the-water Republican U.S. Senate candidate with laughable fundraising totals and little establishment GOP support, has surged to life in a matter of days thanks to a handful of prominent endorsements pulling in big cash and — more important — national distinction.

With almost $600,000 in a television advertising campaign from the Virginia-based Americans for Job Security, a nod Wednesday from conservative lion Sen. Jim DeMint of South Carolina, and his straw-poll win at the state party's March caucuses, Buck is suddenly the candidate that party chatterboxes are talking about.

The Weld County district attorney's renaissance has brought the national spotlight to the Colorado Republican Senate primary, which had been viewed as former Lt. Gov. Jane Norton versus a band of underfunded unknowns.

1. Don't care about Buck, Norton or any other GOP jerks

Romanoff is the man, and he will handily defeat those jerks.
